How should I turn on Staad.beava (bridge code) in staad pro connect edition? In the earlier version, it was easily accessible right at the startup menu as per the screenshot attached. Please reply.

Good day, I would like to kindly query a few observations I have gathered from a shear wall model I am currently undertaking. The structure being modelled is an rectilinear shear wall system which comprises 4 walls, similar to an elevator core in…

Dear sir, I am having a bridge span of 120m and I want to run a moving load as per IRC. While trying, only one vehicle is running from one end to another end. How to create a trailing vehicle with a specific nose to tail spacing option. Is there any…

How could I modelled support on staadpro as shown in the picture? Warm Regards,

T-beam bridge is a monolithic structure of slab and girders. Is Creating deck and beams separately gives good results ? how to model the above section?

I tried to model a cable suspension bridge for pipes to cross a river. I tried all the possible solutions but still errors are present. I also wanted to know if the cables i used are capable of carrying the loads i applied.. Please I need help! :(

can we analysis a RC bridge using the liner static method(Seismic Coefficient Method) in staad pro?

Dear Members, can u please guide me how to do seismic analysis in staad for the portal type structure(Integral). span is for 24.0 portal-model .std m and here am attaching a model for 10.0m

Good day, I am trying to model the wheel loads on the transverse section of a bridge. I have successfully created the moving wheel loads but I also want to apply the beam dead loads also. I attempted to do this by first creating the dead load case…

We have modeled a two-span continuous bridge (50' spans), 6 girders in the cross section (60' bridge width). We are loading with truck & tandem loadings per AASHTO bridge design specifications. When analyzing for maximum positive & negative shears and…

Following is for student project in Bridge Engineering class: We have modeled a two-span continuous bridge in STAAD. We intend to assign Wind loads, based on AASHTO 2012 values. How can a wind definition be created to assign a wind load? Our wind…

I'm modeling a 3 stringer short span timber bridge in staad. The model consists of the three beams and deck planks (which are modeled as Plates). All geometry, material properties, supporting, and loading have been assigned. There is only one error in…

I modeled a 3 stringer bridge with plates. I created offsets for the beams, but immediately after doing that dashed lines extending out appeared. Could anyone explain what's going on here?

I'm modeling a short span timber bridge in STAAD, and using plates to model the deck planks. How do I assign either timber or user defined material properties? Also, should I insert nodes at all places I want a deck plane and define a plate there? …

Hey all, I'm an undergrad doing a bridge design using STAAD (fairly new to the program). I'm modeling a bridge with wooden deck planks. The bridge is a short span composed of 3 longitudinal beams. Resting on the beams are deck plans spanning the width…

The option to generate the loading in STAAD Pro V8i - Beava - is greyed out (in mode bridge deck preprocessor ->Loading->run load generator). Anyone has similar problem? thanks Tom.
